Jordan Love will reportedly be active for the Green Bay Packers on Sunday for their Week 4 game against the Minnesota Vikings, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Love has missed the last two games after spraining the MCL in his left knee in Week 1’s loss in Brazil to the the Philadelphia Eagles. He was listed on Friday’s injury report as questionable.
The initial timetable for Love to return was set at 3-6 weeks, but his progress has allowed him to return soon and will reportedly see him wear a knee brace for extra protection.
The Packers won both games without Love and head into Week 4 with a 2-1 record. Backup quarterback Malik Willis has excelled taking on the No. 1 job, throwing for 324 yards and two touchdowns and zero interceptions while completing 73.5% of his passes.
Willis joined the Packers in late August via trade from the Tennessee Titans. He played two seasons for Tennessee as a backup and occasional injury-replacement starter after the Titans selected him with a third-round draft pick in 2022 to back up Ryan Tannehill.
